Critical Risk

Why clear-prompt-history needs a policy

This tool permanently removes data (prompt history/logs) without the ability to recover it. While the blast radius is somewhat contained to audit logs rather than primary application data, the irreversible nature of deletion and potential loss of important conversation records, debugging information, or compliance audit trails makes this Destructive rather than Write.

From the tool's definition Tool name explicitly includes 'clear' and description states it will 'Clear all prompt log entries' - indicating irreversible deletion of historical data.

How to control clear-prompt-history

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Cross-LLM MCP Server, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for clear-prompt-history:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "hide": [
    "clear-prompt-history"
  ]
}

clear-prompt-history disappears from the agent's tool list entirely, and any attempt to call it is denied. The rest of the server keeps working.

  1. Create a free account and register Cross-LLM MCP Server — nothing to install.
  2. Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
  3. Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
